I am trying, unsuccessfully, to display a digital clock (real time) in the format of hh:mm:ss. It seems like this should be easy, but I have been unable to accomplish it. (I am new to Thunkable) Any help would be appreciated.

It’s helpful if you share what you’ve tried ( a screenshot of blocks or a project link is best) and what did/did not work.

I was successful today at making the digital clock for my first app. Here are the blocks that accomplished it. If anyone has any suggestions on ways that I could clean this up or make it more elegant, please advise me. Thanks.
